G0605X/G0606X Extreme Series 12" Table Saw
Cleaning the Model G0605X/G0606X is relatively
easy. Vacuum excess wood chips and sawdust,
and wipe off the remaining dust with a dry cloth.
If any resin has built up, use a resin dissolving
cleaner to remove it. Treat all unpainted cast
iron and steel with a non-staining lubricant after
cleaning.
Occasionally it will become necessary to clean
the internal parts with more than a vacuum. To do
this, remove the table top and clean the internal
parts with citrus cleaner or mineral spirits and
a stiff wire brush or steel wool. DO NOT USE
WATER—WATER WILL CAUSE CAST IRON TO
RUST. Make sure the internal workings are dry
before using the saw again, so that wood dust
will not accumulate. If any essential lubrication
is removed during cleaning, re-lubricate those
areas.
Cleaning
SECTION 6: MAINTENANCE
Always disconnect power
to the machine before
performing maintenance.
Failure to do this may
result in serious person-
al injury.
For optimum performance from your machine,
follow this maintenance schedule and refer to any
specific instructions given in this section.
Daily
• Check guard operation.
• Inspect blades for damage or wear.
• Check for loose mounting bolts/arbor nut.
• Check cords, plugs, and switch for damage.
• Any other condition that could hamper the
safe operation of this machine.
• Vacuum dust buildup from inside the cabinet
and off of the motor after use.
• Wipe the table clean after every use—this
ensures moisture from wood dust does not
remain on bare metal surfaces.
Weekly
• Wipe down the table surface and grooves
with a lubricant and rust preventive such as
SLIPIT
®
.
• Clean the pitch and resin from the saw blade
with a cleaner like OxiSolv
®
Blade & Bit
Cleaner.
Monthly
• Check the flat belt for damage or wear.
Schedule
Lubricate the areas indicated below every 6–12
months, depending on frequency of use. These
areas can be reached through the motor cover
opening or the blade opening. Check all adjust-
ments after lubricating.
Lubricate the following components with
multi-purpose grease:
1. Trunnion and trunnion slide (where Parts
13 and 42 slide each other, on
Page 61
).
2. The worm gear, bevel gears, acme screw
and shafts
(Parts 99, 33, 38, 6, and 40 on
Page 61
).
Note: Using a small brush to apply the grease
may be easier than using your fingers.
